Prosthodontics: Restoring Your Smile
Prosthodontics, a specialty at Welnox Studio, is a branch of dentistry that focuses on replacing missing teeth and restoring oral function and aesthetics. Prosthodontists are highly specialized dentists who have undergone advanced training in this field. They use a variety of techniques and materials to create custom-made dental prosthetics that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.
Common Prosthodontic Treatments
Dental Implants: These are titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone to replace missing teeth. They provide a stable foundation for crowns, bridges, or dentures.
Dental Crowns: A crown is a cap that fits over a damaged or weakened tooth to restore its shape, size, and strength.
Dental Bridges: A bridge is a dental restoration that replaces missing teeth with artificial teeth supported by adjacent teeth.
Dentures: Dentures are removable appliances that replace missing teeth and surrounding tissues. They can be full or partial dentures.
Benefits of Prosthodontics
Improved Oral Function: Replacing missing teeth can help you chew, speak, and smile more comfortably.
Enhanced Aesthetics: Prosthodontic treatments can significantly improve your appearance and self-confidence.
Improved Overall Health: Missing teeth can lead to various oral health problems, including tooth decay, gum disease, and jawbone loss. Prosthodontics can help prevent these issues.
